Jadon Sancho is looking to leave Manchester United as Borussia Dortmund prepares for discussions about a potential transfer.
Jadon Sancho, the talented winger from Borussia Dortmund, has expressed his desire to leave Manchester United next season. According to The Sun, Sancho hopes to return to Dortmund on loan for another season before potentially securing a permanent deal in 2025. Dortmund is reportedly ready to open talks with Manchester United about extending Sancho’s stay in Germany. However, Dortmund is unlikely to afford the price tag for a permanent deal this summer, so they plan to ask for another year on loan with an option or obligation to buy at the end of the 2024/5 campaign. Sancho joined Manchester United from Dortmund in 2021 for a fee of £73 million but has failed to live up to expectations.
Meanwhile, there are concerns at Manchester United over the potential appointment of Thomas Tuchel as their new manager. Tuchel is expected to leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season, but some at Old Trafford worry about his reputation for leaving clubs under a cloud. The Mirror reports that figures at Manchester United have expressed concern about Tuchel potentially clashing with the club’s leadership. Tuchel had a contentious departure from Paris Saint-Germain, where he clashed with sporting director Leonardo. His spell at Chelsea also ended acrimoniously after a change of ownership at the club.
